Although Seann’s life may seem fine and fabulous right now, the potential popstar opened up about the abuse he’s suffered – and still does – for being comfortable enough to walk out into the world as he wants.

‘People praise me for being so comfortable in my own skin,’ Seann revealed. ‘But that was a time I was afraid. I’ve gone through verbal and physical abuse and people will still shout things as I walk down the street.’

‘We all have our own insecurities, but this is my most authentic self. In my mind I’m not different; this is the new normal.’
